Why do we need levitating trains? In order to move any object we need to invest energy and convert it to kinetic energy. Any object resists changes to its velocity depending on its mass. Heavier objects will require stronger forces...

Are you tired of the same old baking soda volcanoes and potato batteries at science fairs?   If you're looking to stand out from the crowd and impress the judges, it's time to get creative and think outside the box!...

Ever wondered how Quantum levitation is possible? It’s all due to superconducting materials! These materials have special properties that allow them to conduct electricity without any resistance. When a magnet is placed near a superconducting material, the superconductor does two...

Quantum Levitation has dazzled millions of people via major TV networks, the TED conference live and online, and in universities and schools around the world. But we haven’t just created a sophisticated demo for audiences to view; we developed our...

Can we store energy using Superconductors? Yes. There are two superconducting properties that can be used to store energy: zero electrical resistance (no energy loss!) and Quantum levitation (friction-less motion).  Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) Storing energy by driving currents inside...
